Mission Statement

The Passionist community and team hope that all who visit Tobar Mhuire will find a place and a people of welcome and hope, and will leave us with a renewed hope in themselves, in our Church, and in the goodness of the world around us. 
​

At a time when both society and the church are undergoing challenge and doubt, the restoration of Tobar Mhuire Retreat Centre is an act of hope and renewal. In a community coming out of a time of conflict and division, the need for healing and reconciliation calls for nothing less than our best efforts and our total commitment. 

Tobar  Mhuire is committed to becoming a place of:

Renewal
Hope
Healing
Learning
Where the purpose of the Passion is revealed, and where people will come to understand, reflect upon, and transcend the burdens of pain which are at the heart of the human condition.
Where the message of the Passion brings hope, both to a Church and society humiliated by scandals and the abuse of authority, where the rich and powerful seem to progress at the expense of those without power and influence.
Where the story of Christ Crucified proclaims a message of healing to both a broken society and a wounded and at times, wounding church .
Where the message of the Cross responds to the disillusionment of so many congregations and clergy, and calls us to seek together a renewed meaning and understanding of ministry in the church today - a place where we prepare together for the future and not for the past.

​‘The Passion of Jesus is the greatest and most overwhelming work of God’s love.’ St Paul of the Cross
